Woodturner and hobbyist furniture maker from out of my garage. Love the Boro, lurking on FMTTM and spending summers in France.
Because you are good at it. Don’t let the trolls drag you down.

The vase is sanded to 400 grit, given two coats of sanding sealer, treated with Yorkshire Grit, and polished with Hampshire Sheen. I still need to give it one final polish on the lathe this morning.
Now I just need to work on improving my photography — the pictures really don’t do it justice.

The woods I used are mahogany, London plane, sapele, oak, ash, and beech.
The London plane had a particularly strong smell while cutting — it felt like I was releasing the carbon it had captured.

Dana - We will get our own back on Coventry and celebrate in front of their fans like they did to us. UTB

I will link that tonight to the FMTTM Weekend Beer and Music thread.

I just need to put the music console cabinet onto the legs now but will need to take the lid and doors off again to do this. I will also need someone to give me a hand to turn it over and back again when the legs are on. I'm not sure about the wire mesh on the doors.

The smile on Francesco's face says it all. I absolutely love those pictures. At one time we were all like that and some of us older folk haven't changed.

Do you not think Hackney and Conway allowed Roberts to run off them. I still think Dieng should have done better and took a step back.

Mine looks good on my dressing room wall.

How old were you in 1984?

Hello Bandy, nice to see you over here. I bought one of your Boro Eastenders prints from you when you promoted them on FMTTM (Norman_Conquest). It looks brilliant in my dressing room.
